Automotive lightweighting requires the application and development of plastic automotive interiors

In the past two years, the topic of intelligent autonomous driving, new energy vehicles, and vehicle lightweighting has been on the ri.

Recently, the Shanghai Automotive Interiors and Exteriors Exhibition is on display, and interested friends may have already visited .

Relying on the change of consumer demand and the improvement of life quality, personalization and identity symbolization have become the new labels of automobile interior; In terms of innovation, there is a new explosive tre.

Car weight loss, plastics contribute

According to estimates, every 10% reduction in vehicle weight can save 6% to 8% of fuel, reduce fuel consumption by 3 to 4 liters per 100 kilometers, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 5 to 8 gra.

At present, the proportion of modified plastics in automobile interior materials has increased to more than 6

Types of plastics in car interiors

PP, PU, ​​ABS, PVC, PE, SMA and other related modified composite materials are all frequent customers in the current automotive interi.

The development direction of plastic car interior

Lightweight: In the lightweight design and production of automotive interiors, it can be achieved through product structure optimization, material optimization, and new process microcellular foaming (physical foaming/chemical foamin.

·Reliability: Due to the particularity of automotive plastics, it is destined to work hard in terms of flame retardancy, heat resistance, wear resistance, and streng.

Comfort: It is divided into somatosensory comfort and visual comfort, such as optimization of use space and innovation of contact materials, aesthetic improvement and upgrade of personalized nee.

Environmental protection: the use of renewable materials and recycled materials, such as wood-plastic materials, bio-plastics,e.
